π§΅1/ When the Investigative and Data Reporting Task Force launched on April 2021, it became obvious that there's a great need to create a pipeline for Latinx journos to produce investigative and data driven work but also work on management roles. @NAHJ @YCabreraOC @fajardonews
2/ Since then, we organized in subcommittees and met monthly. At the investigative and data subcommittee, we brainstormed needs and provided training for our members. Special thanks to members who helped @DanielaIbarraTV & speakers @Kimbriell @AvQueenBenet @TaliaBuford @NAHJ
3/ We can't do this work without our members @NAHJ to tackle topics that are important to create that pipeline. Gracias! @angelinamosher @NorbertoSantana @DuniaElvir @m_joel17
4/By sharing information, tips and advice, we are helping build that pipeline that many of us never had. @NAHJ Helping journos in every aspect of their growth it's how we pass it forward. Thanks @eh_mah_nwel @ErikaCarrilloTV @ddfonline @mizamudio #MoreLatinosInNews
5/ Last fall, the management subcommittee, announced a coalition @NAHJ @NABJ @aaja @najournalists & strategic plan to hold newsrooms accountable. nahj.org/2021/11/08/nahβ¦
6/ The strategic plan, which includes a demographic survey we have asked newsrooms to complete, is work in progress. @YCabreraOC @monicarhor @Kimbriell @NorbertoSantana @havana58 @fajardonews @NAHJ Fernando Diaz. #MoreLatinosinNews
7/Many of us were happy to see each other at conferences this summer @fvaraorta @magiccia Emilia Diaz-Struck or met for the first time in person. @eh_mah_nwel @DanielaIbarraTV @m_joel17 #MoreLatinosinNews
8/ Now that we are done with the conference, it is time to resume meetings and continue the fight because this is never-ending work that matters. β My hero John Lewis used to say: This is good trouble and necessary trouble." @NAHJ #MoreLatinosinNews
9/ I'm asking you @NAHJ π’ member: You want change? Here's your chance. The Task Force is resuming meetings next month. Come and join us! Porque Si se puede! DM me. #MoreLatinosinNews
